I have an original patina 74 Sport drum-brake model. Lovely little thing. Have to row it along through that 6 speed box like the two-stroke RD350 of the same era.

We DON'T want to be forced to go Electric. They make some sense in crowded cities but zero sense of you want to tour. Getting sanctimonious is very expensive to the average Brit. It's also totally pointless with China and India unable and unwilling to go green. Still it's great for virtue signalling champagne socialists driving around in massive SUV EVs. Those vehicles have Spirit! Yes, they're imbued with the souls of the Congolese children that died mining the Lithium in hellish conditions for slave wages.

Saya pernah memilikinya. Dibeli terpakai pada tahun 1992.Dijual kerana ketiadaan alat ganti. Menurut pemilik asal, motor ini hanya ada 5 buah sahaja di Malaysia pada tahun 1983.Sebelum jual, sport rim diganti dengan jenis jejari dan kemudian dipasang pada Suzuki Txr 150 saya yang baru. Sangat cantik ketika itu 1992 kerana tiada TXR lain yg dipasang rim jenis Bintang. 2024 saya ingit memilikinya semula pasti harga tinggi melangit. 😢
